RawBitmap Class (console safe)

A class to handle bitmaps on memory block level without dependency to Xojo’s Graphics functions.

Xojo’s console pictures suffer from loss of data because of the 7 bit alpha channel and their also extremely slow since their console images need to allocate one buffer per line in the image.

Xojo’s desktop pictures also are not consistent since some platforms use pre-multiplied alphas and others not. The premultiplied alphas also loose precision which makes them not suitable for most image processing.
